1947- Harold Dahl, a fisherman who had witnessed a piece of UFO supposedly fall from the sky and crush his dog in the infamous (and hoax-like) Maury Island incident, is approached by swarthy foreigners in 1947 Cadillacs and wearing dark suits.

1953- A typical sighting was made by Albert K Bender, an early UFOlogist who had set up the International Flying Saucer Bureau in 1952. A year later Bender was met by three men in black had imparted to him the secret over the UFOs and sworn him to silence, ordering him to close down his investigations.
